All hotels in Vancouver Island

Inn at Laurel Point, Victoria

Surrounded on three sides by Victoria’s charming harbour, the contemporary Inn at Laurel Point is within easy reach of downtown and offers fantastic views of the water around almost every corner. The inn’s setting also means that most of the rooms and suites have views of the harbour. Facilities include the Aura Waterfront Restaurant, a glass-enclosed indoor pool and a tranquil Japanese garden. Original native and Asian art is showcased throughout.
The accommodation here is modern and bright, especially the studios and suites located in the highly-recommended Erikson Wing. The views of Victoria are pretty spectacular from each and every room, and you can enjoy these vistas from your private terrace or balcony.

Delta Victoria Ocean Pointe Resort & Spa

Standing resplendently on Victoria’s inner waterfront, overlooking downtown Victoria, this bright, modern hotel has plentiful facilities including an indoor swimming pool, tennis courts and a spa. LURE restaurant specialises in fresh seafood and has wonderful harbour views, while the rooms are modern in style. We highly recommend choosing one of the water view rooms or suites for views over the harbour.

Best Western Tin Wis Resort, Tofino

In a wonderful location on the peaceful Mackenzie Beach, just over a mile from the heart of downtown Tofino, this charming resort is located in the traditional territory of the Tla-o-qui-aht First Nations. The hotel is an ideal base for enjoying outdoor activities in the nearby Pacific Rim National Park. If you would like to head out on the waters of the Clayoquot Sound you can hire a paddle board from Mackenzie Beach or try surfing and body boarding.

Long Beach Lodge, Tofino

On the rugged west coast of Vancouver Island approximately 4 miles from Tofino, Long Beach Lodge is set within eight acres on an expansive sandy beach and is designed as a ‘home-fromhome’. The Great Room offers locally sourced cuisine against a backdrop of ocean views. Surfing is a popular pastime here as Cox Bay is one of the best surfing beaches in Canada. Surfing lessons and board rental are available from the on-site surf club.

Fairmont Empress Hotel, Victoria

The multi award-winning Fairmont Empress is an landmark hotel with turn-of-the-century architecture and a prime position on the waterfront of Victoria’s Inner Harbour. It's one of Vancouver Island’s most celebrated properties and it embraces tradition – scheduling in an afternoon tea here is de rigueur – yet its interiors are surprisingly chic and befitting of the 21st Century. We love that you can step straight out the door and into the heart of the city with the Parliament buildings to your left and the bars, restaurants and shops in the network of streets to your right. Straight ahead is the Inner Harbour where the small toy-like ferrys, whale-watching cruises and sea planes go back and forth. Like all Fairmont hotels, the Empress is home to the a beautiful spa with its marble floors, grand décor and menu that's full of signature treatments and muscle-melting therapies.
As part of its recent reimagining, the hotel gained a wonderfully casual dining venue, Q At the Empress. It replaced a more stuffy grand dining room and it now fully embraces the food of the Pacific North West. And why not when the hotel is so close the source of the produce? It has its own roof-top garden and a menu which features unfussy sea food, meat and vegitarian dishes. Our favourite spot to dine is The Veranda - an open-air extension of Q at The Empress that overlooks the Inner Harbour. The adjacent Q Bar has an extensive wine and cocktail dishes and an old world-meets-new world ambinace.
Waking up to views over Victoria's Inner Harbour is one of our favourite Vancouver Island expeirences so we highly recommend choosing one of the Fairmont Rooms which overlook the water or a spacious Signature Harbour View Room. A new addition to the hotel are the Fairmont Gold Rooms. As well as a complimentary breakfast, you'll be able to enjoy private check-in and access to an exclusive water front lounge. Again, we suggest upgrading to a Fairmont Gold Room with harbour views.

The Oswego Hotel, Victoria

Just two blocks from the ferry terminal and four blocks from downtown Victoria, yet in a quiet residential neighbourhood, the Oswego Hotel couldn’t be much better situated. The hotel is very modern in style with spacious suites that even feature a small kitchen equipped with a hob and microwave – perfect if you want to make your own light snacks and meals. You can opt for a Studio Suite, a One Bedroom Suite with separate living room and larger kitchen or a two bedroom suite which is a great choice for families looking for some space of their own. There’s a restaurant – The O Bistro – on-site too, which is open for brunch and dinner daily; and a range of spa services are offered in your suite.

The Wickaninnish Inn, Tofino

It’s hard to think of a more spectacular setting than that of Tofino’s 'Wick Inn'. Sitting on the rocky west coast of the Esowista Peninsula on the edge of the Pacific, it overlooks the often beautifully-deserted Chesterman Beach and is almost completely surrounded by the forest. It feels as if you're perched at the edge of the world. As you would expect, the Inn really makes the most of its surroundings.
This stunning stretch of coast Tofino is at its busiest during the summer months; however, winter storm watching is a serious business here and the Wick is the front-row seat. Get yourself a hot chocolate, get cosy by your room's fireplace and watch as rollers crash over the rocks. This is mother nature at her wildest.
The Point Restaurant is a delightful space which has 240-degree of the Pacific Ocean. The menu is focused on West Coast dishes – think sea food and succlenet meat dishes – created with fresh and locally-sourced produce. Make sure you save a bit of space following your main course as the dessert menu here is very well thought of.

Kwa'Lilas Hotel, Port Hardy

Port Hardy is the gateway to the inlets and islands of the Broughton archipelago and British Columbia's Great Bear Rainforest. You’ll need a comfortable base to head out on your multiple-night wildlife-seeking adventures and the Kwa'Lilas Hotel, which translates to ‘a place to sleep’, is just that. Although it’s a wonderfully modern hotel, there’s a real focus on the region’s ancient First Nations culture. The onsite restaurant Ha’me’ has a menu full of dishes inspired by the Aboriginal tastes and flavours and elders share their stories over a drink at the hotel’s bar, Nax’id.
